Spring Break–Thursday & Friday

Thursday we stayed close to home because of the threat for severe weather. 

Friday we convinced Grant to skip work and we headed to Union City to the Discovery America Museum.  The kids and I have been here before but this was Grant’s first time.  He enjoyed building blocks in the kid section.

Hayden wanted to build a tower just like his dad and he did a pretty good job!

We went down the human slide.  I went first to meet the kids at the bottom.  This is what I saw after I came down.  Addyson was not impressed.  She started crying so I wasn’t able to get pictures of Hayden or Grant coming down.

One thing that we were unable to do the last time we visited was to see the train.  I was excited about seeing it today.  It was fun to see all the different types of train cars.

Addyson loves having her picture made but my boys feel a little differently.  Grant did have fun blowing the train whistle.

It was very windy outside today causing it to be pretty cool.

We told Addyson that she was the one that cracked the bell after she rang it.  She thought she was going to be in trouble.  Grant enjoyed sitting down every time we found a place to watch a show.  The kids quickly caught on to this  and tried to hide all the tv’s from Grant.

As we were about to leave we heard that the kids could touch a snake.  Hayden was really excited because all the books he has been bringing home from the library have been about snakes.  They both enjoyed this activity a lot.

Tomorrow we will finish out spring break with a few small home improvement projects around the house.
